Full Plot Details

In the spring of 1981 Irish Republican Bobby Sands' 66-day hunger strike brought the attention of the world to his cause. Drawing on an Irish Republican tradition of martyrdom, Sands' emotive, non-violent protest to be classified as a political prisoner became a defining moment in 20th century Irish history. Sands' death after 66 days marked a key turning point in the relationship between Britain and Ireland, and brought a global spotlight to the Northern Irish conflict which eventually triggered international efforts to resolve it. 66 DAYS is a major feature length documentary exploring Sands' remarkable life and death, 35 years on from his ultimate sacrifice. The spine of the film is comprised of Sands' own words, drawn from his hunger strike diary, a unique insight into the man and his beliefs as he embarked on his final journey. Directed by award winning filmmaker Brendan J Byrne and produced by Trevor Birney of Fine Point Films, this landmark non-fiction feature film will have its world premiere at a major international film festival in 2016.

Movie Reviews

RTÉ (Ireland) - 10/10 by Paddy KehoeBrendan J Byrne's profoundly moving account of Bobby Sands' hunger strike...alternates between an uneasy sense of futility and the spiritual triumph granted in part by by hindsight, the triumph that appears to trump the relentless despair.
Spirituality and Practice - 9/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA searing documentary about the life and death of an Irish hero.
AV Club - 9/10 by Noel MurrayThe emotional reserve of 66 Days can make the film feel a little dry at times, given that it’s about something as visceral as a man starving himself to death. But Byrne does a fine job of juggling a lot of information.
The Playlist - 9/10 by Oktay Ege KozakNot only is Bobby Sands: 66 Days allows us to put together a great double feature with “Hunger,” it’s also an incredibly important and profoundly inspiring historical documentary that will become more and more relevant as we prepare to once again face the kinds of oppression that Sands fought against.
Observer (UK) - 8/10 by Wendy IdeIt's a sympathetic portrait, certainly. But this film is no empty hagiography. It's an insight into the thoughts of desperate, violent men - something which is just as relevant now as it was then.
Daily Express (UK) - 8/10 by Allan HunterDistance allows for a more measured perspective in this intelligent, carefully balanced documentary.
Daily Telegraph (UK) - 8/10 by Robbie CollinByrne’s film is concerned with the process and practice of myth-making: the way the right person, or action, or face, can capture a moment, or galvanise a movement – and, for both good and ill, transform politics into something like art.
Independent (UK) - 8/10 by Geoffrey MacnabThe film itself stands alongside David Beresford's book Ten Men Dead as one of the best and most even-handed accounts of a traumatic and still very contentious episode.
Irish Times - 8/10 by Donald ClarkeWe are left with a comprehensive, balanced, gripping tale of terrible times.
Empire Magazine - 8/10 by Andrew LowryNarratives of the Northern Irish Troubles are a nightmare of bias and bullshit – this superior doc does better than most in cutting through both, and offers a lot to experts and noobs alike.
